Another Sunny Day
Another sunny day,I met you up in the gardenYou were digging plants,I dug you, beg your pardonI took a photograph of youin the herbaceous borderIt broke the heart of menand flowers and girls and trees
Another rainy day,we're trapped inside with a train setChocolate on the boil,steamy windows when we metYou've got the attic windowlooking out on the cathedralAnd on a Sunday eveningbells ring out in the dusk
Another day in June,we'll pick eleven for footballWe're playing for our livesthe referee gives us fuck allI saw you in the corner of my eye on the sidelinesYour dark mascara bids me to historical deeds
Everybody's goneyou picked me up for a long driveWe take the tourist routethe nights are light until midnightWe took the evening ferry over to the peninsulaWe found the avenue of trees went up to the hillThat crazy avenue of trees, I'm living there still
There's something in my eyea little midge so beguilingSacrificed his life to bring us both eye to eyeI heard the Eskimosremove obstructions with tongues, dearYou missed my eye,I wonder why, I didn't complainYou missed my eye,I wonder why, please do it again
The lovin is a messwhat happened to all of the feeling?I thought it was for real;babies, rings and fools kneelingAnd words of pledging trustand lifetimes stretching foreverSo what went wrong?It was a lie, it crumbled apartGhost figures of past,present, future haunting the heart
